Retro Birthday

On my birthday I went fishing. Not the kind with the pole and the bait and the hook. No, no. I tried that kind once when I was nine; when the fish came up I cried and threw it back. Now I only do this kind of fishing. The kind with a retro surfboard with a fish tail and two fins. Actually, this fish surfboard was made by Scott and given to me about three birthdays ago. Sometimes when you are experiencing something new, it’s nice to go back to something old.

Thank you all for your birthday wishes! They made me feel really happy.
